Adding the update catalog(s) to ZMD
After registration, suse_register knows the update repositories.
This knowledge must be transferred to ZMD somehow, so e.g. rug or zen-installer know where to look for updates.
So suse_register has to call
rug service-add --type=yum <url>
and
rug sub <url>
where <url> is the update URL as retrieved from the registration server.
This rug call has to be repeated for every update URL retrieved (if there are multiple).
ZMD will then
- contact the URLs as repomd (aka YUM) repositories and download metadata.
- fill this metadata into the sqlite database
- run the update-status helper
The call to update-status will calculate required patches/updates.
Q: Where to write the result ?
